Professional and caring service from start to finish.

Dave Weeks 27th Jun 2023

From the intial meeting with Jonathan and until the final journey of our mum we were treted with so much respect and sympathy. The staff at Jonathan Terry went above and beyond for our family at such an upsetting time. I would like to especially thank Trisha for all of the work she did, she is a real attribute to the company. I would highly recommend Jonathan Terry for a professional and courteous service when having to deal with the passing of a dear loved one.

As truly independent funeral directors, privately owned and serving all faiths and backgrounds, they are committed to providing a service that honours the unique lives of everyone they serve.

Established in 1999 by Jonathan Terry, who has been dedicated to the funeral profession since 1985, they have built a solid reputation for delivering personal and excellent service to families throughout Southampton and beyond.

Over the years, Jonathan Terry have continuously reinvested in their business to ensure that they offer the best possible support to their families. In 2008, in response to the growing demand from families on the eastern side of Southampton, they opened their London Road funeral home.

In 2013, they embarked on a journey of redesign and refurbishment of their Peartree Avenue premises, culminating in the completion of the project in 2014.

A significant milestone in their journey came in December 2018 when they acquired 103 Peartree Avenue and launched the White Lily Centre, a bereavement centre offering counselling services to all. The White Lily Centre stands as a symbol of their commitment to supporting families beyond the funeral itself.

In May 2022, their services were further enhanced with the introduction of a new fleet of Mercedes hearses and limousines, ensuring that every aspect of your loved one's final journey is conducted with the utmost care and professionalism.

Behind every successful business is a dedicated team, and at Jonathan Terry Independent Funeral Directors, there is a team of compassionate professionals who truly believe in the importance of their vocation. Their unwavering commitment to supporting families during your time of need is the cornerstone of their reputation for excellence.

  • 5 Martin Dawkins 25th Jun 2023

    Can not recommend Jonathan Terry enough. The service they provide after my Dad passed away was second to none, and it was all conducted in a sensitive and sincere manner. They where available at short notice when i wanted to visit my dad and made sure the funeral went smooth and as we wanted on the day. Thank you for making a sad experience as easy and memorable as it could be. 

  • 5 Mark Noyce 25th Jun 2023

    I thought I'd drop you a line to say 'Thank You' as fully expected yet again you and your team have delivered an immaculate service, first class from the offset.

    I really do have to commend you for such excellence. Nothing is to much, communication is smooth and everything and everyone is made at ease.

    The day went very well and both myself and brother Lee are very happy that we gave our Dad a good send off. With the sun shining down too, it really was a very fitting day in all areas.

    So again I really do thank you not for just Dad, but also my Mum in supporting us through two very hard times.

    I would like to thank Jonathan and his wonderful team of professionals for organising my dear Mother’s funeral.

    Jonathan was very kind, considerate and thoughtful at this very sad time. His team supported and provided all that was required, from basic, caring communication, sorting the funeral stationery and organising everything that need arranging at the Crematorium. I must also say a big thank you to Diane, the Celebrationist that Jonathan organised for us. She was amazing and delivered a beautiful ceremony, which everyone absolutely loved.

    Thank you, everyone, Ian Gale.

    Always a very professional service from start to finish. Tom was very attentive on the day and a great comfort for our family. All the staff that attended were great.

  • 5 Margaret Rylands 27th May 2023

    The entire team could not have been more helpful, supportive and pleasant; both with everything prior to the funeral and on the day itself. This was so much appreciated by myself and my family.

    Please convey my thanks to everyone. I especially want to thank the Pallbearers, as I had originally been told that some sort of trolley might have to be used.

    The one hiccup was my fault - I was so busy proof reading the Order of Service,hymns and prayers that I didn't notice that Iain's year of birth was wrong. In fact, not until two days later.

    Thank you again.
